Chapter 472 PLAYING WITH FIRE
472 PLAYING WITH FIRE
"Did he kiss you?" Kace leaned closer, his eyes narrowed dangerously at her.
"No." Hope blurted out without having a chance to think straight, she shook her head as her heart beating very fast. "I mean…"
"Good." Kace pulled away and grinned, his easy- going nature returned. "It wouldn't be good for him." he smirked devilishly.
"You can't hurt him." Hope glared at her, but her blushing face couldn't hide what she felt about this.
"I will not." Kace shook his head. "I will win you over. I have told you before, once I returned, I will never leave you again."
Sometime, it was very good to hear when a man showed his feeling without restriction. A little bit possessiveness along with Kace's gentle voice was enough to make Hope bit down her lips to prevent herself from smiling.
"I will see what you will do." Hope threw sofa cushion toward him, stood up and ran toward her room.
Once Hope was inside the protection of her bedroom, she closed the door and locked it. The moment no one could see her, a huge grin appeared on her face.
Hope threw her body on the bed and squalled on her pillow, she raised her head, grabbed the white wolf doll and hugged it tightly against her chest. Hope felt very happy.
Without her knowing, in the living room, Kace shook his head as he heard what was going on inside Hope's bedroom.
"If you want to play hard- to- get, at least don't be so blunt, girl." He chuckled to himself, but then the pain on his back made him frown.
==============
"Where is Kace?" Hope was about to make breakfast, but she only met the sleepy witch at the kitchen bar stool while Lana was still on her mission. Hope could only roll her eyes upon hearing the word 'mission'.
"He lives somewhere else." Serefina yawned.
"Why?" Hope slightly felt disappointed.
"Because I don't want him to live here after he came out of the blue with his lovely plan." Serefina stretched out her body and Hope grimaced when she heard the sarcasm in her voice.
Hope couldn't believe it, both of them had known each other for centuries, knowing their personalities like night and day.
"Where does he live?" Hope put a simple sandwich in front of Serefina and a glass of warm water. The witch didn't like to drink milk.
"What do you want? Live with him since you have come to age?" Serefina bit her sandwich.
Hope almost choked on her milk when she heard that. "Of course not." she managed to say after coughing a couple of time.
"Good. Because he is your teacher now, it will be nice if both of you restraint yourself in the public." Serefina said nonchalantly as she drank her water and yawned again.
"No, we don't have that kind of relationship." Hope blushed. What is Serefina trying to say? It doesn't look like they will hold hands in public right?
It was very rare occasion when Serefina would agree with Hope's decision, though Serefina, surprisingly, didn't scold her when Hope dated Oliver, but the witch also showed her disgust toward her relationship.
"You just said it because you want to annoy Kace." Hope mumbled and Serefina just shrugged.
"It feels good to annoy him."
Hope chuckled when she heard that. She agreed with that.
==============
P.E class was only once a week, thus even when they were in the same building there was no many occasion Hope could see Kace.
"Hei, are you looking for him?" Ian was eating his lunch unceremoniously while Ethan just came, bringing a tray full of food for Hope and Rossie.
"No." Hope lied bluntly as she took the food and thanked Ethan.
Ian was observing her since five minutes ago and she kept turning her head every time someone walked through the canteen door.
"You are a bad liar." Ian scoffed and stuffed his face with food.
"Don't disturb her." Rossie scolded her brother.
It was lunch time and like usual, the four of them would take a seat near the window at the corner of the canteen, so they could see the whole room from there.
"Are you planning to break up with Oliver now?" Rossie asked Hope with concern in her voice. "I don't think Kace will be fine."
"No, he is fine." Hope smiled at Rossie as she ate her food. "He said, he will win me over."
Ethan and Ian looked at each other, confused.
"I don't understand a girl." Ethan murmured.
"I don't understand her." Ian chimed in.
But, right at that time, Hope spotted Kace walked through the door and she immediately stood up. Hope brought her food over to Oliver and his friend's table.
"What is Hope doing?" Rossie widened her eyes in disbelieve.
"Kace will kill that guy." Ethan commented when he watched what was going to happen.
"No, it is Hope who kills the guy." Ian corrected his twin.
Since they started dating, Hope had said that she didn't want to eat together with his friend, because most of them were very noisy and annoying while Oliver couldn't stand be in the same table with Ian for more than five minutes.
That was why they had never been together when lunch time.
"Wow! What's bring you here." Oliver gave Hope huge smiled as he watched his girl sat down beside him.
"I want to eat with you." Hope shrugged, yet from the corner of her eyes, she could see Kace was looking toward her direction.
Somehow, this made Hope excited to see what would be Kace's reaction.
"I am happy to hear that, babe." Oliver grinned and Hope grimaced when she heard the endearment. It didn't feel the same when Kace said it.
Yet, Hope turned speechless when she watched Kace walked straight toward their table with devilish smirk on his suave face.
What will he do?
